There is a level of being in which the ALL
THAT IS truly is all there is. You have no need of
anything--because you are everything! You have no boundaries because, when
you are All That Is, there is nothing left to be outside of you.

This is the level which we will now refer
to as The Gathering of the One. This level of consciousness would be likened to PURE
BLISS. There is complete diffusion of focus and a truly porous
consistency to all things. Literally, everything and everyone can
exist within the same space at once! If this concept sounds somewhat
fantastic to you, then realize also that even the words we speak to describe
this level of Being are grossly inadequate and incredibly dense
in comparison to this level of infinite harmony and love.

We are the Reconnections. We are all those
parts of your Expanded Self that you had to forget about in order to become
human. We have never been very far from you, just far enough. Within
our Conscious Collective is contained a harmonization of the height,
depth, and breadth of who you have been, and who you shall always be. We
are here with you now, interfacing, sharing those bits of information that will
connect you with what is called The Multiverse. You are so much more than
you think you are! And we are here to prove it to you, and to assist you
as you restore yourself again to full power and awareness.

Having described merely a shadow of the totality of
The One, we now move to allegory as we begin this next transmission. With this
description as a backdrop, we now risk irreverence as we bring to
mind an age-old question: "What does a person give
(as a gift) to someone who has everything?" Even better still: "What
does one give to someone who IS everything?" The
answer is: THE GAME.

In attempting to explain the complex, yet simple
nature of The Grand Game, one runs the risk of "blowing the
circuits" of every ideology or superstructure of belief held by
humankind. However, the timing you set is now complete and it has been
appointed of us to "fill you in" regarding this grand scheme
of life in physical form.

Essentially, The Game is a great gift that the ALL
THAT IS gave to Ourself as a vehicle for personal exploration and
expansion. Of course, we must speak allegorically again---for to explain the
Game, one must begin playing it. Stated simply: From the Infinite
Unity described above--We chose to fragment and separate
out a portion of Ourself and pretend that it was something
else. Turning to face the Whole, or "GOD"---this
fragment of "NOT-GOD" became a mirror
reflection for Us--an image to study, and a way to examine various
aspects of WHO WE ARE. With this interface of two
entities: God and "Not-God," we beheld the first polarity
relationship---which is to say, a confrontation of opposites.

Next, there was decreed the formation of DEFINED
SPACE, which is to become the Game Board upon which this is all
played out. "Not God" began to fragment, and to produce a
spectrum of relationships and interactions which would become his
or her legacy of personal creation--an exploration that goes
on into infinity. Each of the various fragments that are produced
exists in relation to him as he does to the Greater Whole. All the
while, The Gathering of the One assumes the position of
Multiversal Audience. At Our most expanded level, NOTHING
HAS REALLY CHANGED. However, whenever a fragmentation occurs,
each piece that is separated vibrates slower than the
fragment which produced it. Meanwhile, a "Veil of
Forgetfulness" insures that each new consciousness will forget its
relationship to the creator--while continuing to multiply and
expand--believing him/herself to be all there is that inhabits physical
space.

Therefore, if the "Multiverse"
consists of a compilation of these creative fragmentations, then a
"universe" would be the expansion and apportionment of one particular
creator. If fact, one could define the word "uni-verse" as
meaning ONE STORY. Uni=One. For that
creator---history would be "his story." Though there is the
appearance of many beings contained within his
universe---they are actually ONE BEING, portrayed and
defined in every way that he wishes to be. As a true fragment of
All That Is, a universe is not something you exist within. It is
really something which YOU ARE.

THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL CRYSTAL

Just as a cup of water, taken from the
ocean, contains all ofthe essences of the ocean but it
is not the ocean ---you, as an individual creator, exist in
relationship to all other creators as they relate to the Gathering of the
One. It is as though the Oneself views the action of the Game within a
gigantic prism. Each facet of the Multidimensional Crystal is a
"window" into the world of an individual
creator/fragment. Through that window or "viewpoint," the observer
forms an interpretation of life. This unique perspective is transmitted
instantly to the view screens of the Greater Whole, and is factored in to
the TOTAL EXPERIENCE which is the Grand Game. Thus,
it can be said that the basic difference between the Oneself and each
of the fragments (at whatever level they manifest) is found in their
sense of perspective---how, and to what extent they "see"
things.

Understanding the process of fragmenting from an
Expanded Self is crucial if you are to gain a workable perspective about
yourself at this time. This includes a comparison of what it feels like
to live and function "as the fragment" versus what it feels to
view yourself from without. To say that each fragment of the Oneself,
projected onto the Earth Plane, is unreal would be a gross
misunderstanding of the process. EVERYTHING IS REAL---everywhere
it appears. This is because reality congeals into noticeable patterns at
whatever level it is observed.

GODS IN LIMITATION

One now-famous saying, which seems
particularly apropos to this discussion is: "You are not human
beings who are having spiritual experiences. You are really spiritual
beings who are having a human experience." And yet your Veil of
Forgetfulness continues to re-enforce the belief that what you see going on
around you is the totality of who you are.

Understand.......Dear Friends........that this
physical world is simply a vacation spot for you, a place to temporarily be
away from all that power. You come here to un-relax (so to
speak)---creating drama, intrigue, mystery and angst. At
times, you may "solve" some of your dilemmas, thereby
experiencing a rush of joy. But, before long, you are back in hot
water, absorbed in trying to free yourself from some new
conundrum. In this way, you gain insight into various aspects of
who you are--who WE ALL are. As the
pendulum swings from conflict to resolution, in universe after universe,
your sensory mechanisms faithfully record each event, thereby
contributing mightily to Our Oneself awareness. Though the
Veil of Forgetfulness quite effectively hides this wry motivation from your
conscious mind, you are really a bunch of Cosmic Houdinis, secretly reveling
in the amount of handicaps you can overcome!

During this time of rapid expansion on your
planet, you have begun a process which we refer to as "phase
shifting." Having given yourself a number of planetary
"wake-up calls," you are now busy about the task of integrating your
Divine Knowingness with your human limitation selves. This process
is usually initiated within the dream state. Soon, it begins leaking
information into your meditations, and then into your waking mind as
you go about daily, mundane tasks. Some might refer to these intuitive
sensings as "delusions of grandeur." Others acknowledge them
as beautific visions, though they also find ways of distancing
themselves from identifying personally with what is seen there.

As you reach for your divinity, believing
yourself to be completely dedicated to a lifelong "search for
truth," you must also get in touch with the aspects of yourself that are
dedicated to keeping you from finding it. After all, if
you look into the face of God (whichever God that pleases you) and see a
mirror there, your vacation time is over, is it not? And so it
goes--expansion, and then contraction again. You embrace your
eternal nature, and then you experience some sort of death process so you
can forget what you learned, and start all over again. In, out, up,
down, all around.......lifetime after lifetime.

THE RETURN TO ONENESS

Our purpose in approaching you now is not the
termination of this process. Rather, it is to add to your "Game"
the clear knowledge that it is possible, at any moment, to return to
that knowledge and power which you clearly possessed
before you entered the physical plane. You can do it
consciously, and without laying down your physical body as a sacrifice for
your knowing. We do not present Oneness to you as a final destination.
Rather.......it shall be, for you, a touchstone---a way of
clearing your cognitive "palate" so that you can fully
enjoy the next "banquet" of experience which you are
about to serve yourself.

The Art of Remembering is balanced and
enhanced by the Art of Forgetting. In and out, across
time--you weave your consciousness through a panoply of universes--becoming
something (or someone) new with each twist and turn of your
beautiful mind! You do not do this merely as an individual--even
though everything you see around you may give that impression.
Rather, you do this as an entire universe. You do it as a Collective
Oneself. And we are always here with you, holding onto the
remainder of your knowledge and abilities. You may retrieve them
whenever you wish, whenever it serves the grand purpose for which you created
this reality in the first place!

Until now, you have played all of the roles
well. There has been total immersion in The Grand Game as each
necessary experience and unfoldment moved you ever closer to the time when
that which was hidden would be allowed to come to light..........THE
TIME OF RECONNECTION. As we continue to supply these "missing
links" between the Expanded Self and each smaller version of
that Idea, a wonderful transformation will begin.

At your own rate and in your own timing, the
lines that border and confine your reality will begin to fade.
Within the face of every person and imprinted upon every object within your
field of awareness, you will begin to see the common fabric out of which all
stories and scenarios are cut. There need be no great trauma to this process
unless drama would heighten your enjoyment of the unveiling. Though they
appear expensive and expansive---those story boards and props, which you have
been called "physical reality," will eventually collapse
to reveal the true Source of all this noise and commotion. But this
"Oz" behind the curtain is anything but a useless "little Old
Man." Instead there will be seen a grand and glorious Being of such
magnitude that it would be futile to seek to portray that picture here. You
will come face to face with Your Expanded Self. And with
the laughter of a child there will be the final appreciation of the humor and
grace out of which everything is formed. And then you will be home.
